Rick Denzien could be one of the best of the modern-day writers -- yet he does it utilizing the driving beat of rock music -- and makes it work like a charm!

On the album, he is ably complemented by drummer Ronnie Crawford, who's also backed Lisa Loeb on Geffen Records; bassist Mike Gregos who's played with the likes of Lenny Kravitz and Neil Diamond; and Philadelphia guest musicians J.J. Zeller on drums, Dave Strong on guitar and Phil Smithburg on bass. - Les Reynolds

"On this CD, the singer/author/songwriter/poet reminds me of Canada's great musical and poetic genius BRUCE COCKBURN... The album was better than I imagined. It became more impressive the more I listened to it... Intelligent, thoughtful lyrics with solid music by Denzien make 'EXIT 21' an album worth checking out."
- Armando Canales - The Critical Review - Armando Canales

This is rock, and it's all-purpose fun. Pleasant enough to keep the Brittany Spears girls glued in, but biting enough to alternate the alternative crowd at the live sets.
Though just by giving a listen, you'll see that Rick needs little of that. [hype] He is in control, writing great music, giving you 13 great tracks. - Ben Ohmart
